Display a modeless progress dialog with a thermometer bar. \var{title}
is the text string displayed (default ``Working...''), \var{maxval} is
the value at which progress is complete (default \code{100}). The
returned object has one method, \code{set(\var{value})}, which sets

bar itself. The returned object has two methods,
\code{set(\var{value})}, which sets the value of the progress bar, and

The progress bar has a ``cancel'' button, but it is currently
non-functional.
The progress bar has a ``cancel'' button. [NOTE: how does the cancel
button behave?]

Note that \module{EasyDialogs} does not currently use the notification
manager. This means that displaying dialogs while the program is in
the background will lead to unexpected results and possibly
crashes. Also, all dialogs are modeless and hence expect to be at the
top of the stacking order. This is true when the dialogs are created,
but windows that pop-up later (like a console window) may also result
in crashes.
